Lithium Fluoride: Market Segmentation

Lithium fluoride is an inorganic compound, which is obtained by reacting lithium hydroxide with hydrogen fluoride. Although, it can also be produced via the dissolution of lithium carbonate in hydrogen fluoride and from other methods. Owing to its properties like low melting point and high stability, it is extensively utilised in molten salt chemistries and nuclear reactors. In nuclear reactors, the base solvent used in molten-salt reactor experiments is formed by blending beryllium fluoride with lithium fluoride. One of the most common applications of the compound includes its use in enamel, glass, and ceramics industries as a fluxing agent.
